- THE DAFT THINGS PEOPLE DO ...
- ----------------------------------
-
- This article is split into two different sections, please don't confuse
- one with the other as they are totally different in their "message" to
- the reader. The first part is about the daft things that people do, while
- the second part is about the more distressing things people do in life.
-
- --------
- A man in a Reliant Robin three-wheeler led SIX police cars on a 80 mph
- chase around Derbyshire in the Midlands. The Reliant Robin damaged one
- police car after ramming into it's side during the chase. Several other
- cars had to swerve as the Reliant Robin sped through country lanes. The
- car was not stopped until it turned it a dead-end road.
- ========
-
- SIX police cars chasing a RELIANT ROBIN !!! HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAARRRR ! I
- wish I'd seen that ! How embarrassing for the police ! Chasing a Reliant
- Robin ! I didn't know Reliant Robin's could go that fast - let's face it
- ..... who'd want to do 80 mph in a three-wheeler ? Ooo...
-
-
- --------
- Thames Valley officers were ordered to find the elderly owner of
- (another) Reliant Robin as he travelled along the M4 doing less than
- 25mph. Police said "We're not sure where he went but it's possible that
- he turned off to Reading and disappeared amongst the traffic." The
- driver caused a huge jam on the West-bound carriage-way of the M4 near
- Reading.
- ========
-
- Ah, the police... They can't even stop someone doing 25mph in a 70mph
- zone.
-
-
- --------
- The Ministry of Defence is spending millions on bringing in 300 new
- staff - to find ways of sacking colleagues.
- ========
-
- Don't you just love our Government ? Worra bunch of plokers.

- A Canadian doctor claims to be the first person in North America to
- offer an operation which can increase the size of a penis by 50 %.
- Robert Stubbs told the Toronto STar news-paper that he is the only
- certified plastic surgeon in North America to learn the technique from
- it's pioneer in China, whom he identified as Mr Long Daochuo (Hur hur!)
- ... Dr. Stubbs said: "All men are not created equal. Women, given the
- choice, would usually choose something larger." (Hur hur hur !) ..
- The two-hour operation costs about 1,500 quid and involves making an
- incision about three inches wide, the paper reported.
- ========
-
- Ooooooooo no..... never.... Three inches wide ? Nobody, but NOBODY
- is cutting anything from my bits ! And anyway, if it was extended by
- 50 % I'd start knocking people over ! Ahem......

- THE SAD THINGS THAT PEOPLE DO...
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-
- And now for the things that people do in life that just aren't worth
- it. It's terrible when people risk their own lives just for a quantity
- of money. This section isn't funny and I hope that people can learn
- something from it.

- A drug smuggler is dying in hospital after a condom packed with 4000
- pounds worth of cocaine burst inside his stomach. Another 49 condoms
- containing cocaine were removed by surgeons. The 200,000 pounds (GBP)
- worth of drugs were found in the stomach of a man who arrived at Gatwick
- Airport from Lagos, Nigeria. Mr David Chesters, Customs' assistant
- collector for London Airports said: "This man is very seriously ill and
- will probably have a most horrible death. He is in intensive care. If
- he lives he could have severe brain damage."
- These couriers are commonly known as "stuffers" or "swallowers" as
- this is how the drug hides in their bodies. The "mules", as they are
- known, can carry more drugs in one trip than usual smuggling methods can
- and detection is more difficult. Many are poor people who are attreacted
- to a glamour trip to England. Mules can earn up to 500 quid plus bonuses
- as the Customs checks at Heathrow and Gatwick are so thorough.
-
- End !
